In Response To: Headphones while playing in live BG tournaments - slightly more concerning (Keene)

I've recently been reading about Binaural Beats, and have found that there are some significant potential uses - provided you are able to train yourself to them.

I think that if I knew my opponent was using these, then I would most certainly refuse to allow the use of headphones.

I've been reading about astrology, homeopathy, tarot cards, and the magic eight ball. Do we need to ban these too?
